These come in the form of desk lamps and portable tents for use at home. Brian came upon this business after seeking solutions to his own health problems, and found that near infrared light helped solve his insomnia almost immediately. This experience, coupled with the gap in the market that he noticed, prompted him to found the company, and we are very happy to speak to him about his flagship products and what is surely going to be a booming business. During our chat we break down the health benefits of sauna therapy as well as compare inferior and more common instances of these practices. The foundation of heat and light therapy is mirroring the experience of our ancestors, much like a Paleo diet does with food, so this makes a lot of sense to us here at Paleo Magazine. Listen in to hear more!

“Yeah, people think about saunas, they’re all great in getting the body to sweat, and that is the goal when we talk about detoxification and the most awesome, efficient way to detoxify the body, that is passive sweating.” — @saunaspace [0:19:13.0]

He is also a former bodybuilder and has been in the business of health and fitness for over 20 years. Know Foods aims to solve a common problem for those on low-carb or keto diets—how to still enjoy those foods that you might miss so much! He’s been a big proponent of the keto diet, and still manages to eat his own products all the time. During our chat we unpack his personal story and journey. We look at the different companies with which he has worked. We also talk about the ingredients, the unique sweetener, allulose, that is vital to his products, and how you can have your cake and be keto too! It’s all coming up, so listen in—you do not want to miss this episode!

“I have forever just kind of been obsessed with training, nutrition, bodybuilding and all of that good stuff so I’ve been lucky enough to have my career kind of gravitate toward that area” — Yemeni Mesa [0:03:51.1]

“I’m on a personal mission to try to figure out how to truly help people achieve their fitness goals or not get sick.” — Yemeni Mesa [0:07:30.1]

“I learned a lot in those seven months, I learned I probably don’t need as much protein as I thought I did. I learned that fat as fuel is amazing in certain scenarios but not in others.” — Yemeni Mesa [0:19:10.1]

Today on the show, we welcome Chris Kresser. Chris is a globally recognized leader in the fields of ancestral health, Paleo nutrition, and functional and integrative medicine. He is the author of the New York Times best seller, The Paleo Cure and has just released his brand-new book titled, Unconventional Medicine. More and more people around the world are starting to recognize that the problems we are facing in the current healthcare system are not ones that someone else can fix. Recent statistics suggests that we are going to have a shortage of over 50,000 primary care providers by the year 2025. One in two American's now have chronic disease, 30% of kids now have a chronic disease, and the average amount of time that a patient gets to speak before they're interrupted by the doctor is just twelve seconds! These are just some of the alarming statistics released in Chris’s book, which address the current state of conventional medicine in America today. So what can we do about it? In this episode, we discuss the role of functional medicine and how the move toward this approach is almost inevitable. Chris explains how we can start to implement functional medicine into our lives today and start addressing the root causes of our problems, rather than masking the symptoms. This is an insightful episode for those in a medical field, health activists, and anybody looking for a solution to their personal, long-term health.

Today on the show, we welcome Bill Schutt. I hope that you already ate, because today, we are talking about a topic pretty unlike anything we have talked about before on the podcast: Cannibalism. Bill is a zoologist and bestselling author who recently wrote a book titled Cannibalism: A Perfectly Natural History where he talks about cannibalism across all species, including humans. This isn’t a sensationalist book, but rather a sociological, cultural and anthropological look at the reasons why cannibalism occurs in nature. Bill covers topics such as cannibalism among ancestral humans and Neanderthals, as well as the diseases related to forced cannibalism. When it comes to cannibalism, Bill uses the term “Culture is King” and how that can explain why some cultures consider eating their dead to be a more practical, reasonabl,e and respectful practice than, say, burying them. Cannibalism is something that has fascinated humans for centuries, and Bill is all about de-mystifying it, reiterating that it is all about the lens through which you look at certain behaviors. So put down your fork and have a listen to this fascinating talk that will give you loads of great conversation pieces for your next dinner party. Bon a petit!

Ever heard of a pili nut? Well, just a few years back, Jason basically introduced the incredible pili nut to north America. On a trip to the Philippines, Jason discovered this super nut — a richer, fattier, low-carb nut, packed with nutrients. The route Jason took to finding his passion and founding his company is definitely special. From growing up in Alaska, to boxing in Las Vegas, to leading mountaineering treks around the world, kite-surfing, and doing cross fit — Jason is one of those people who has pretty much “done it all.” In this episode, Jason shares how a serious stint with rhabdo led to a year-long recovery process and, ultimately, to the pili nut! We’ll also learn all about the health benefits and harvesting of the pili nut and why Jason decided to do business the “old-fashioned” way. Take a listen to learn more about this awesome product taking the keto world by storm!

Today on the show, we welcome Frankie and Theo, founders of Kimera Koffee. Nootropics could possibly be one of the hottest topics these days. Pills, drinks, and supplements infused with natural nootropics and adaptogens that are meant to improve your cognitive performance, assist in memory retention and mood and generally make you feel like a better and more productive human being. One of the more creative companies that are doing this a little differently is Kimera Koffee, a brand that infuses their coffee with amino acids and natural extracts like Taurine, Allithiamine and L Glutamine for energy, focus, and concentration. In this episode we find out how Kimera Koffee do things differently. In terms of their business model, how they harvest their beans, their very unique approach to social media and how they choose their brilliant brand ambassadors. In addition to the whole coffee thing, we also digress to topics such as boybands and jiu-jitsu. Even if you aren’t into nootropics, and even if you’re not a coffee person, this is an insightful and entertaining interview with two successful business owners who are staying true to themselves and doing things their own way.

On today’s episode, we welcome Darryl Edwards, who may arguably be one of the most fun paleo authorities around. Darryl is a speaker, a coach, nutritionist, an author, and the founder of Fitness Explorer Training. You might recognize his Primal Play methodology or perhaps you’ve just seen him piggybacking his friends around at different events. He’s been published in magazines like ELLE, Men’s Fitness, Women’s Health, and he even has a feature in an international documentary called We Love Paleo. Darryl was also recently interviewed for a new book called Born Primal and his goal with Primal Play is to make movement and activity fun and effective. Making individuals healthier and fitter in a way that’s enjoyable, rather than tedious. Although it certainly can be, play doesn’t have to mean silly or superfluous. As you’ll learn in this episode, play can also be an intense workout and help you become faster, fitter and stronger. Darryl’s method is not about rules and incremental improvements, but about moving your body creatively and using your environment to do so. Today, Darryl gives us some tips on how we can start running like a bear, chasing cars, climbing trees and putting play into practice. He also talks about the state of paleo both in London and the U.S and the future of the movement. Take a listen!

Today on the show we welcome Caitlin Allday, the Founder of Paleo University as well as the Director of Content and the organization’s nutrition coach. She is a personal nutrition coaching consultant, she studied nutrition at NYU, completed her dietetic internship at Texas ANM, and she’s also registered dietician and nutritionist. On top of that, she’s also kind of like the Indiana Jones of Paleo! Caitlin has been playing around with the paleo model of evolutionary nutrition in her own life for about a decade, and after working with many clients, she soon realized that the main issue for many people is not the idea of what to eat, it’s knowing how to cook healthy, real food in a way that’s simple, convenient, efficient, and sustainable. It’s easy to get overwhelmed when you’re trying to break long standing habits and form new ones. So Caitlin decided to create this resource, Paleo University, where all the recipes, tutorials, meal plans, grocery lists, and kitchen skill info, is in one place. Making it easier for you to join and contribute to a more accessible community surrounding healthy habits. Today, we talk with Caitlin about her fascinating nutrition journey and what Paleo University offers, and maybe get some tips on how to be healthier, up your kitchen skills, and be more proactive in the kitchen.

Today’s guest is Dr. Norman Robillard, a microbiologist and a researcher who spent 20 years in the pharmaceutical industry before founding the Digestive Health Institute. Dr. Norm’s goal is to develop holistic treatments for digestive illnesses based on understanding the underlying cause of the disease, rather than just dealing with the symptoms. He has created the Fast Tract Diet, which he’s going to talk about in our interview, and he also has two books out — The Fast Tract Digestion and The Fast Tract Heartburn. Today, we discuss the complexities of gut health; touching on some interesting points around symptoms, treatment, carbs, enzyme supplements, fasting, fats, and why you should chew your food. We also get into some of the not-so-pretty stuff like SIBO, mucus membranes, fecal bacteria, and gas. But it’s all for a good cause and makes for an insightful conversation to help us understand our gut and how we can heal it. Take a listen!

Today we welcome Brian Mackenzie, co-author, together with Dr. Andy Galpin, of a book called Unplugged: Evolve from Technology to Upgrade Your Fitness, Performance, & Consciousness. Brian is a world-renowned strength and conditioning expert and has worked with many high level winning CrossFit games athletes and Olympians. He cofounded XPT Life, a wellness conditioning and recovery program, with Laird Hamilton and Gabby Reese. For a while now, the idea of being “plugged in” has been considered pretty much exclusively positive, but it’s safe to say that our addiction to technology today has spiraled out of control, keeping many of us from living our own lives or listening to what our body is telling us. Brian’s book, Unplugged, provides a framework for using technology to meet your specific health and performance goals in a more mindful way, while also reconnecting with your own instincts and the world around you. In this episode, we learn more about Brian’s research into breathing and discuss technology addiction, diving with sharks, why technology is never going to replace your soul, and how to balance it back into our lives. Take a listen!

On today’s show we welcome Serenity Heegel and her partner Joe Carr, founders of Serenity Kids, a company that makes portable baby food that’s gluten free, Paleo, and non-GMO in flavors like organic beef with Kale and sweet potato, chicken with peas and carrots, and even uncured bacon with kale and butternut squash. They started Serenity Kids because they wanted only the best for their future baby. They partnered with small, American family farmers to create a delicious baby food that contains meat from animals raised humanely, on pasture, without hormones, antibiotics, or GMO feed. Pastured meats benefit the animal, the family farmers, and the planet.

The best part is that they're better for your baby because they have a much higher Omega-3s and CLAs than grain-fed meats. At Serenity Kids they blend these meats with high-quality organic vegetables to create balanced, nourishing meals. In this episode Joe and Serenity talk about how they found Paleo, why their product is unique in the baby food market, and they give some tips on the ideal baby food that I certainly didn’t know.

In today’s episode we welcome scientist and author Dr. Anthony G. Jay. Anthony is the President and CEO of AJ Consulting Company and recently wrote an eye opening book titled Estrogeneration: How Estrogenics are Making You Fat, Sick and Infertile. His book explains what estrogenics are, just how pervasive they are in our world today, and, despite the mounting evidence of their many negative effects, just how little is being done to minimize the use of unnecessary and often toxic ingredients in our food, skin care, plastics, and other daily products.

Often scientific research can be inaccessible to the average human brain, but Anthony writes in such a personable and digestable way. Anthony exposes what is in our coffee, sunscreen, our salmon and critiques the shady politics of scientific research. Although the information in his book might absolutely horrify you, thankfully he offers plenty of actionable steps for us to easily minimize the amount of estrogenics in our daily life. If you are experiencing any type of health issue, suffering from depression, or even infertility — we would highly recommend you take a listen to this illuminating interview!

On today’s episode we welcome Andy Hnilo. Andy is a model, actor, former professional athlete, and founder of a skin care company, Alitura Naturals. Andy is the kind of guy that when you see him, you think, “What is this guy eating?

Today we learn more about the process that goes into making Andy’s Aliture skin care products — which contain food-grade super foods like colostrum, royal jelly, and even Chaga mushrooms. Today we hear Andy’s incredible story, talk all about marketing to men, organ meat, and even hanging upside down. For any guys out there thinking, “Skin care isn’t really important to me,” Andy explains, with the help of a UFC fighter, why we should all be taking care of our skin. Take a listen!

On today’s episode, we’re talking all about gut health. This is an incredibly multi-faceted topic as there are many layers when dealing with gut health, gut treatment, and preventative measures. From food, to exercise, to lifestyle factors, to different auto immune issues — gut health appears to be an endless topic of discovery, with rarely a clear cut diagnosis or treatment. So today, I’m talking with Dr. Michael Ruscio. Michael is a clinical researcher and author who practices functional medicine with the focus on digestive conditions. Dr. Ruscio has his own podcast and blog where he talks about gut issues, and he’s a frequent speaker on this complex topic. Here, I ask him all the questions that us, non-doctors, have about gut health. Like how to determine what your issues actually are, what they stem from, how to fix them, and even the order in which to take these steps. If you’re struggling with any gut health or digestive issues, or you know someone who is, this is an episode that you probably won’t want to miss!

On today’s episode we have Dave Asprey, an entrepreneur, businessman, author and probably one of the most prominent bio hackers in the world. Not only is Dave the creator of Bullet Proof Coffee and the Bulletproof Diet, he’s also the man who’s gunning to live to 180 by hacking every element of his health. While some of Dave’s tactics are oh so Paleo – like eating quality whole foods and sleeping in a cool, dark room - some of his methods are about as opposite from traditional Paleo as you can imagine. Like taking over a 150 pills, vitamins and supplements a day! Whether you’re into bio-hacking or not, one thing we can say is that Dave Asprey is certainly putting in the time, money and effort into testing these methods for us.

In this episode we discuss everything from diets and sleep, to America’s moldy coffee and bio hacking in the womb, to what happens when Dave’s kids go through the McDonalds Drive through.

Just like knowing someone’s history can help you understand them better, understanding your DNA can help you better understand your own body’s needs. On today’s show we talk with former Olympic athlete, Craig Pickering. Craig is a former Olympic sprinter and competed in four world championships and the 2008 Olympic Games before switching to bobsleigh and qualifying for the 2014 winter Olympics, making Craig only the eighth British person to be selected for both a summer and winter Olympic Games. There’s no doubt he’s got one heck of a good story and a ton of great insights on human performance to share.

Today Craig heads up another one of his passions called DNAFit. DNAFit uses genetic information to let us know what types of training, food and supplementation will help us maximize our health and athletic performance. We had a chance to take this test and learn all kinds of interesting things and in today’s interview, we get to use our results as an example for how to use this service.

This company makes grass fed, grass finished beef jerky as well as marinades, meat sticks and even cute, perfectly proportioned snack mates for the kiddie’s lunch boxes.

This company has helped change the public’s perception of jerky from an aggressive salted and sugared trucker treat that you pick up at the gas station to a healthful, nourishing snack that really anyone can enjoy.

This week we’re talking with Laird Hamilton and Gabriel Reece, two of the most high functioning, successful and driven people we have ever met, about their lives together and how they work to establish a lifestyle, routine and community centered around happiness and health. They’re professional athletes. Laird is basically the king of surfing and Gabby is a former professional volleyball player, they’re both business owners and between them, they have their own documentaries, podcasts, books and more.

They run and host a fitness, wellness and recovery program called XPT where they travel to different locales and spend three days eating, surfing, meditating and working out with other likeminded folks. We had a chance to attend one of these experiences last summer—it was an absolutely singular inspiring experience that still informs the choices we make every day. In this interview, we talk about XPT, we talk about their super food company, a new documentary about Laird’s life and we talk about the way they eat, work out and their relationship with each other and with other people in their community.

In this interview, we talk about XPT, we talk about their super food company, a new documentary about Laird’s life and we talk about the way they eat, work out and their relationship with each other and with other people in their community.

Crowd Cow is a pretty cool new company that is changing the way we purchase our meat by providing high quality beef in a convenient new format. They use an online system where you can put money on a cow, basically becoming a “steak-holder”, get it? You can purchase as much as you want without having to split a cow with someone else and then find a place to store it all. The grass fed beef comes from small, sustainable, and independent ranches and we can tell you personally that the quality is awesome. It’s delivered frozen straight to your door, in individual sous vide-ready vacuum packs.

The whole process makes getting the best quality beef, the exact cuts you want and the quantities, easier than ever. So we figured this company is something that Paleo listeners or anyone who appreciates a good steak would be interested in. Today we’re talking to Joe Heitzeberg, the CEO of the company, about how he came to the idea and we learn a bit more about the process, about the beef, and about some of the interesting challenges involved in running a company like this.

You’ve heard of the term “going off the grid”, but how many of us have actually contemplated doing it? An even fewer number made the necessary steps, truly living off the grid, even temporarily. Gary Collins is one of those rare folks, and he joins us on the podcast today. Gary is the creator of the Primal Power Method, a way to help people make better decisions to improve their health and importantly, simplify their life. The idea of simplifying your life is a topic we touch on a lot in this interview.

Gary is a college professor, health and wellness consultant and public speaker. He has worked in Military Intelligence, the US State Department, the US Department of Health and Human Services, and the US Food and Drug Administration as a special agent. Gary has written books on his own unique take on being healthy, including his latest book, Going Off the Grid. This is a fun podcast and one we know you're going to learn a lot from.

If you are a little bit of a health nut and a little bit of a meat head like we are, then you have probably already heard about pureWOD, a supplement company offering protein powders, pre-workouts, post workouts, and greens that are made with only a few high quality ingredients. pureWOD has recently undergone a rebranding and is now called Equip, which we will get into a bit in our talk today with Dr. Anthony Gustin, who developed the company because he could not find what he was looking for in the market and wanted supplements that were the next best thing to food when food just is not convenient or available.

The company has taken off and he has since started a new one called Perfect Keto, offering exogenous ketone powders for those high-flying, bio-hacking keto folks who need help getting into or staying in ketosis. That’s kind of just the tip of the iceberg for Anthony. He is an authority in health and wellness and does a lot of self-experimentation with fasting, keto, and other stuff for his website and blog. He is very fun to follow on social media for that reason, and he is one of those guys that talking to him makes you feel a little bit lazy, but in a good way because he inspires you to do a little more experimenting and learning on your own.

This is a special quick edition of the podcast because this week, we are heading to Paleo f(x), a health, nutrition, fitness, and wellness event that focuses on the Paleo lifestyle. It’s a three day event in Austin Texas May 19th to the 21st and it features hundreds of vendors with food, supplements, fitness gear and more, thousands of attendees from all over the place, all kinds of special events, workout opportunities, workshops and educational sessions and it’s a literal who’s who of world class experts in the Paleo community.

To learn a bit more about what we can expect with this year’s show, we managed to get the very busy founders of Paleo f(x), Michelle and Keith Norris to join us today. Keith is one of those few lucky souls who escaped corporate America and and was able to transition full-time into his passion for bettering lives by teaching the art and science of physical culture. Michelle is a former corporate warrior, trained chef, and multi-potentialite. Her personal health issues and struggles with the traditional medical system inspired her to take a new approach in how the world tackles health, wellness, and prosperity.

It’s girl talk time, or women talk we should say, because today we are talking to Stefani Ruper, the founder of Paleo for Women and the cohost of the Paleo Women Podcast. Stefani has been a main stay in the Paleo world since she started her website talking about her struggles with PCOS and other hormonal issues. She tends to focus less on prescriptive rules and more on ways to love yourself and have a healthy mind and body.

Stefani’s open, she’ll talk about real stuff, even if it’s uncomfortable, like acne, PMS, sexual health, and all the good stuff we really want to hear about, which is why we’re so glad she is on the show today. Stefani is also the author of a book called Sexy by Nature, acknowledging what most of us women already know, that our health and physiology is a bit more complicated than men’s. As such, we need to pay some extra attention to it rather than just following some blanket weight loss plan and hoping that will fix everything.

Today we are going to get into all of that and more and although there is plenty of girl power, anyone can enjoy this podcast because Stefani is just so fun to talk to and makes it easy for everyone to learn something.

It turns out that going from working at NASA to launching a very popular collagen company may not be as big a step as you think. Today’s guest is Kurt Seidensticker, the founder of Vital Proteins, one of the biggest companies offering collagen products on the market today and we might be their biggest fans. Their grass fed whey and marine collagen products can make a huge difference in the health of your skin and nails and digestion, even your joints, which is great for those of us who work out a lot.

Collagen seems like a miracle product until you really learn more about it and then it makes a lot of sense why it does all of the great things that it does. But in any case, we’re a little bit obsessed with them. We are talking to Kurt today about the company, why collagen is so great, and he teases us with a bunch of new products that he will be showing at Paleo f(x) this year.

The Hungry Brain is a new book from Stephan Guyenet, an obesity and neuroscience researcher. In his book, Stephan explains all about the complicated processes of the brain and body that leads us to behave the way we do with regards to eating and food, and how this can be problematic when taken into context with our modern world and our modern diet, which is a situation that’s very different from the world our ancestors lived in and the world in which our brains developed.

This book really resonates, we think, because so many of us feel out of control with our eating and don’t understand why we make the food choices we do or why we act the way we do or look the way we do when we so desperately want things to be different. This book is so important because it helps explain in very specific and scientific, yet clear terms, why our brain does what it does and the ways we can work to combat the very intelligent biological processes that in today’s world can make us fat, sick, and keep us caught in a negative cycle with our eating.

We’re really excited about our talk today with Stephan and think it will make us all feel more informed, more empowered, and more able to tackle what, on the surface, seems like a very simple task — eat well and be healthy — but is actually so much more complicated than we think. We really hope you get as much out of this episode as we did.

Is Milk Paleo? Does it matter? Is milk good for you? For those of us willing to eat the flesh and guts of many animals, is it really that much of a stretch to consume dairy products too? These are questions that may be a source of a lot of debate. However, considering a pretty big theme in nutrition these days, even in our ancestral health and nutrition, is about personalizing your diet with foods that make you feel and perform your best, some of you may still be into milk or at least willing to explore your options.

On the podcast today we are talking with Walid from Desert Farms, a company that sells pasture raised grass fed camel products in the US such as milk, meat, and even skin care. He gives us the low down on why camel milk is different and in his opinion, superior to cow’s milk. He talks about how his camels are raised and we also get into the different ways that camel products can be used like in chocolate and beauty products. We also talk about hump fat, so definitely tune to learn all about it.

We’re talking to Nora Gedgaudas on the podcast today. Many of you are probably already familiar with her name. She is a Paleo expert with a number of bestselling books like Primal Body, Primal Mind and Rethinking Fatigue. Nora is a board certified nutritional consultant and clinical neuro feedback specialist with the practice in Portland, Oregon. She is a speaker and educator with her own podcast as well as being a regular at Paleo f(x). Nora has a new book out called Primal Fat Burner that talks about a fat based ancestral diet that helps you live longer and be leaner and healthier.

Now, while the term ketogenic diet is probably familiar to many of you, this book covers topics that even we did not know. In today’s episode, we get into the biological basis for this type of eating and how it can benefit everyone from high level athletes to those dealing with a whole host of health issues, and everyone in between. Nora schools us on things like how much protein you should actually be eating. Spoiler alert, it’s probably pretty different than you think. So let’s get right into it, and learn more about Nora.

This super food company’s goal is to popularize medicinal mushrooms by incorporating them in popular products like coffee and hot coco. Basically, they’re nicely tricking us into eating what’s good for us already. Their products launched in the US market in 2015 and are now sold in more than 25 countries.

Today’s interview is with the founder Tero Isokauppila, president of Four Sigmatic. Tero grew up in a farm in Finland where he foraged for mushrooms and learned about natural foods from an early age and he later got a degree in chemistry and a certificate in plant based nutrition from Cornel University. He’s an authority on super foods and natural health and he was chosen as one of the world’s top 50 food activists by the Academy of Culinary Nutrition. So if you’re into food and bio hacking, definitely stay tuned. You’ll never look at mushrooms the same way again.

I think many of us Paleo folks have already learned that one of the biggest challenges in being healthy is that our modern world seems stacked against us and at odds with our biological wiring. Our world, which we are very lucky to inhabit, encourages us to eat processed unhealthy food, encourages us to sit and watch TV rather than walk and play, and to scroll on our phone all night rather than sleep.

The knowledge of this modern world with all its amazing technology and comfort is also the source of much of our current physical and mental challenges, but that isn’t an excuse to let go and be as sedentary and unhealthy as possible. Instead, this information can help to empower us to be mindful of our choices and educate ourselves about better ways to live. Ways that more closely aligned with what makes each of us feel good and healthy. Today on the podcast, Robb Wolf is here to discuss his new book, Wired to Eat. Robb is one of the original leaders of the Paleo movement, he is a former research biochemist, a health expert, and bestselling author of The Paleo Solution.

In today’s episode, we talk about why most diets fail and why another diet is not the answer. We dive into rewiring our bodies, a lot about carbs, and we also get into the ketogenic diet. I also bug him about his own personal training and eating routines. Robb is a ridiculously smart human being and he is also super down to earth and friendly. So I really hope you enjoy this interview as much as I did.

All right Paleo Nation, we've got a new host, Ashleigh VanHouten, on the mic and today's guest is none other than former PMR host, Tony Federico. He has now transitioned into the role of VP of Marketing for Natural Force, an all-natural supplement company. We're going to talk about his new job, the importance of prioritizing, what he has learned during his time talking to so many of the Paleo industry’s best and brightest, and what’s cooking over at Natural Force, the vision they have for the company, as well as some new things that are coming up. Tony also gives some great advice like why falling off your bike, both literally and figuratively, could be a good thing and passes the “podcast torch,” reflecting on some of his best moments and leaving Ashleigh with his final words of wisdom.

In our conversation we discuss:

How Paleo Magazine was like a beacon of light in Tony’s transition to the Paleo lifestyle.

How Tony got the opportunity to be VP of Marketing for Natural Force. Why Natural Force supplements are different and really stand apart.

Tony's perspective on whether to supplement or not.

What a day in his new work life looks like at Natural Force.

Some new developments at Natural Force (and a sneak peak at product launches!)

Tony’s opinion on whether the term “Paleo” has hit its peak.

Tony's best moments as host of Paleo Magazine Radio.

Tony’s final parting words to Ashleigh, as the new host of Paleo Magazine Radio.

“It’s a real joyful thing when you get outside of your normal box, as far as movement is concerned, and you start to play again.” — @TonyFedFitness [0:37:57.0]

“You have to honor the seasons in your life and listen to what you’re being called to do at any given time.” — @TonyFedFitness [0:44:50.0]

Steve Sashen has always been an energetic, athletic, and entrepreneurial guy. In high school he was an all-american sprinter, and while studying film in college, he did stand up comedy on the side. After graduating with his masters in film, he went on to develop word processing software for script-writers that became industry standard.

Steve stayed active throughout his life, trying things like circus acrobatics and competitive jump roping, but nothing really scratched his itch until he rediscovered his passion for running, and specifically sprinting. A friend introduced him to the world of Masters Track and Field, and for a time, he was having the time of his life.

Eventually, a string of devastating injuries forced Steve to pump the brakes, and while searching for a solution he found himself going on a completely bare foot run with the Boulder Colorado barefoot running club. As the miles ticked by, Steve explored the information his shoe-free feet provided, and in doing so, altered his gait and mechanics such that he didn't even realize that he had run farther than he ever had in his life.

That very first barefoot run lit a spark that changed the course of Steve's life forever and on today's Paleo Radio Bite, we discuss how.

It's in your pocket, in your ears, and it's even in the very air you breathe, but we're not talking about a chemical or biological organism, we're talking about EMF.

EMF is an acronym for Electric and Magnetic Fields. Naturally occurring EMF fields are generated by the earth and the sun, and as such, humans have been exposed to these fields since before we were humans. As with many things however, human ingenuity and innovation has led to the development of technologies that are changing the natural EMF environment.

Power lines, cell phones, computers, wifi routers, microwave ovens, and numerous other electronic devices generate evolutionarily novel EMF fields, and the question we must ask is whether or not these new sources of EMF cause long term harm and contribute to disease.

According to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, "the few studies that have been conducted on adults show no evidence of a link between EMF exposure and adult cancers, such as leukemia, brain cancer, and breast cancer." They assert that the frequency of EMF emitted by household appliances is "non ionizing" and therefore relatively benign as opposed to the "ionizing" radiation of x-rays and gamma rays that have well documented harmful effects. Despite these assertions however, there are many anecdotal accounts of health issues related to low frequency EMF exposure.

On today's show, we talk to a former Silicon Valley engineer named Jeromy Johnson who experienced a health crisis after wireless "smart" electrical meters were installed below his San Francisco home. Jeromy's "wireless wake up call" has led him to become an electrical health advocate and he believes that managing our exposure to EMF will become an increasingly essential ancestral health strategy.

In our conversation we discuss:

The unforeseen consequences of "the internet of things".

The symptoms of EMF exposure.

The potential long term effects on reproductive health and cancer risk that EMF presents.

Tips for reducing your exposure to EMF.

Digital detoxes.

How to use technology safely.

Why he decided to speak up about his experiences with an EMF related illness.

What it was like to tell 2000 technology enthusiasts at TEDx that there might be a downside to inundating our environment and our bodies with EMF.

Digestive issues like gastroesophageal reflux (GERD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) affect millions of people and cost billions of dollars in lost work and health care expenses each year.

In the search for relief, afflicted individuals often suffer through invasive colonoscopies, dangerous immune suppressing drugs, and even surgical removal of their colon, but what if the the answer was as simple as only eating potatoes for just a few days?

This might sound ridiculous, but according to Tim Steele, author of The Potato Hack, a short-term mono-diet of plainly cooked potatoes can strengthen your immune system, improve sleep, and even lead to weight loss by feeding beneficial gut bacteria, combating inflammation, and resetting your relationship to food.

Tim isn't even the first person to make these claims, he got the idea for a potato fast after reading about an 1849 diet prescribed to people who were "living too luxuriously" and who became overweight and "dyspeptic" as a result. More recently, both the magician Penn Jillette, as well as an Australian man named Andrew Taylor, have credited potato fasts for helping them to lose over 100lbs each.

On today's Paleo Radio Bite, we phone in to Tim at his home in North Pole, Alaska, to find out more about his book The Potato Hack and how the much maligned tuber might be a health food after all.

According to Zevia CEO Paddy Spence, fighting for smarter food options for consumers against large, established competitors is the riskiest career move he ever made, but he's not one to shy away from a fight, or to let fear of failure prevent him from taking a risk.

Growing up with a single mom who struggled to make ends meat, but always made a point to feed her kids the best food she could buy, Paddy knew that he wasn't going to get any handouts and any success he had would come from dedication and hard work.

He studied Greek and Latin in high school and used his unique specialization to get the interest of the college administrators at Harvard where he paid his way by delivering boxes for UPS. After graduating from Harvard Business School with his MBA, he went on to work for companies like Kashi, and Levlad, a personal care manufacturer that makes natural shampoos and soaps. He also founded SPINS, a health and wellness marketing firm.

While working at Levlad, Paddy came across a stevia sweetened soda called Zevia, and was inspired to find out more about the company. He ended up buying the the small startup and has since led Zevia to over $100 million dollars in annual revenue, and that's with products that are artificial color free, artificial flavor free, corn syrup free, GMO free and naturally sweetened.

On today's show, we are joined by Paddy Spence to discuss his career, his life, and how he's trying to revolutionize the diet soda industry.

Chef Trevor Bird was born and raised in Montreal, Canada and began cutting his culinary teeth when we was only a teenager. His career path wound through some of Canada's best restaurants, and eventually landed him a spot on season 2 of Top Chef Canada. Although he didn't win the competition, he did come in second place, and used the experience, and a partnership with fellow contestant Curtis Luk, to open his own restaurant, a farm-to-table focused eatery named Fable Kitchen and Diner. He is now one of Canada's most ardent real food advocates and his passion for feeding people well has now manifested in his latest project, an online meat co-op called MeatMe.co

Meatme connects customers to a growing network of Canadian farmers who raise their animals on natural pasture and in a honest and humane way. Qualifying farms do not use hormones, antibiotics, or any chemicals whatsoever and are also required to provide ample living space, natural and GMO free feed, and high standards of animal welfare.

On the MeatMe.co site, you can actually pick the exact animal you want to buy a share of, such as "Heifer no. 347 | Black Angus", "Hog no. 188 | Nut fed Berkshire", and "Lamb no. 874 | Hair bred".

On the MeatMe.co site, you can actually pick the exact animal you want to buy a share of, such as "Heifer no. 347 | Black Angus", "Hog no. 188 | Nut fed Berkshire", and "Lamb no. 874 | Hair bred". Additionally, Chef Trevor provides innovative and delicious recipes with each order, and he joins us on our show today to tell us more about his culinary career and the Meatme.co difference.

OUR MISSIONHealthy Human is more than just a hydration company, we are a lifestyle firmly planted in the healthy living space.HealthyHumanLife.com

We've talked to many people who have dealt with serious health conditions, and many of them have been frustrated or stymied by the conventional medical system and the care they've received from doctors, but what happens if you are the patient and the doctor? This is the situation Dr. Cate Shanahan found herself in when she experienced a mysterious and undiagnosable pain in her knee that made it difficult for her to walk and almost cost her her job.

After trying multiple treatments and experiencing numerous dead ends, she came across a book called Spontaneous Healing by Dr. Andrew Weil, which, in her words, "opened a crack in the darkness." In Spontaneous Healing, Dr. Cate learned about the significance of omega three fatty acids and it set her on a path to uncover the "dark calories" that have infiltrated our food supply and how traditional fats, and an ancestral diet in general, can provide a way out of many modern diseases. She was inspired to write her ideas down, and these notes provided the basis for her best-selling book Deep Nutrition that she wrote along with her husband Luke.

Deep Nutrition was originally released back in 2008, and since then, she has been busy building her medical practice, speaking at conferences across the country, and working as a dietary consultant for the LA Lakers. Obviously she's learned a lot in the process and is now taking those lessons and using them to revise, update, and expand her book.

The updated version of Dr. Cate's Deep Nutrition is now available, and on today's show, we discuss:

The dangers of intergenerational malnutrition.

The superfood she used to help Kobe Bryant recover 100% faster from an ankle injury.

Why oxidative stress is the ultimate disease maker.

How free radicals can create an explosion of inflammation in the body.

Based in Northern California, Jambo Superfoods has made waves in the Paleo community and beyond by bringing the world's first Paleo certified cannabis edible to the marijuana marketplace.

Earlier this year, we interviewed the founders of Jambo, Shannon Puma Drake and Johg Ananda, and we discussed their personal and professional lives, it was an enlightening conversation to be sure, but before we go any further we’d like to warn anyone who doesn't want to hear adults talk about pot that they might want want to skip today's show, alternately, if you have kids in the car and you'd rather not have "that" conversation with them, now would be a good time to check out just about any other episode of Paleo Magazine Radio.

If you're still here however, we’re going to assume that you're game to get into this discussion, and because it's a two part interview that spans an entire two hours, we’re going to cut right to the chase.

In part one, we’ll be talking to Shannon about:

Her former career as a fashion marketer.

What led to her starting her first company, Give me the Dirt.

How she first learned about Paleo from a biological anthropology professor.

The impact of witnessing her father's battle with lung cancer.

Overcoming chronic migraines.

Using cannabis recreationally, medically, and as a tool for personal development.

Resurrecting the wisdom of the ancients.

Using breathwork to master your body.

How she found her her inner jungle cat through plant medicine.

We will have a short intermission before getting into our second interview with Johg Ananda where we discuss:

Growing up in Florida.

Working for his dad's plumbing company.

Starting a startup, failing, and starting again.

How he turned an idea into a business in single weekend.

Why asking yourself the question "can you sell it?" is more important for an entrepreneur than "can you make it".

Why Tim Ferriss' 4-hour work week worked, but took more time, money, and energy, than Johg had ever imagined.

The irony of medical cannabis products that are full of sugar and processed ingredients.

How he is navigating his way through the complex web of marijuana laws and regulations in order to bring value to the lives of his customers, employees, and himself.

To get to know them better, we wanted to find out three key pieces of information: the last thing they cooked, the last way they moved, and the last book they read. These questions lead to discussion of bacon beef liver pate, beast deadlifts, getting bucked off horses, secret agents in Prague, and suicidal Mennonites.

The fact that gluten is bad is one of the pillars of Paleo and any Paleo person worth their sea salt knows that hunter gatherers didn't eat grains and that of all the grains, gluten containing ones, like wheat and rye, are the worst.

But what if grain brain and wheat belly got it wrong? What if Paleo man did consume cereal grasses and what if there were actually benefits to eating grains?

If you're feeling skeptical right now, we don't blame you, when our Editor in Chief Cain Credicott forwarded the contact information for Dr. John Douillard, author of Eat Wheat, we thought that this had to be a hoax, but after talking to Dr. John, we realized that his approach towards consuming grains has a lot more in common with Paleo than we initially thought, and that it might not be a crazy idea after all.

In our conversation we discuss:

The 400 billion pounds of toxic chemicals that might be the root cause of our digestive health issues.

How to reboot your digestive system.

How digestive irritants like lectins may actually help to detoxify your digestive system.

The right time of year to eat wheat.

Which ancient grains are the best.

What you can do to bring bread back into your life without compromising your health.

When Doctor Polina Sayess attended the 2012 Ancestral Health Symposium in Boston Massachusetts, she immediately wondered how many other physicians were in attendance.

She reached out to the event organizers who helped set up an informal meet and greet outside the conference hall and in that moment, the Physicians for Ancestral Health organization was formed.

The group, made up of practicing physicians, medical students, and residents from a wide range of specialties, share information online through their Physicians for Ancestral Health Facebook group and in person at their very own annual conference.

This year's event will be held Thursday, January 19th through Saturday, January 21st in Miami Florida, and Tony will be there covering the show for Paleo Magazine as well as presenting on the subject of media and content creation for Health professionals.

On today's Paleo Radio Bite, we talk to Dr. Sayess about:

Her experiences working as a family physician.

How Ancestral Health has informed her practice.

The limited education in nutrition most practitioners receive.

How both patients and practitioners benefit from having a physician who is Ancestrally minded.

It is thought that Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine once said that "all disease begins in the gut" and while we can't exactly prove that Hippocrates actually said that, modern science has begun to discover that whoever said it was right!

When we take in food, or the evolutionarily novel food-like substances sold at most restaurants and grocery stores, an entire cascade of reactions, absorptions, and outcomes occur. If we are eating biologically appropriate foods, our body will break then down, separate essential nutrients, feed the microbiome, nourish, rebuild, and repair our body, and eventually eliminate the waste products. But, If we go for the food-like substances,we disrupt vital tissues, irritate the immune system, and ultimately create disease.

On today's episode of Paleo Magazine Radio, we have an incredible conversation with someone who works on the front lines of this battle between our bodies and the ersatz foodstuffs that make up much of our diet, his name is Dr. Chad Larson and he's a trained chiropractor who also works for Cyrex labs, a clinical testing laboratory that provides high quality testing services for clinicians.

Cyrex labs assays can help detect leaky gut, gluten and other protein sensitivities, autoimmune and pathogen reactivity, and even blood-brain barrier permeability.

In the Outside Magazine article "The Workout Time Forgot", world-renowned movement expert Erwan Le Corre said that "We live like zoo animals!" and that we are essentially wild creatures ill-suited to desk jobs and processed foods.

He says that "We have become divorced from nature, trapped in colorless boxes,"and that "We have lost our adaptability, and it's threatening our health and longevity."

We all spend more than enough time in boxes, sedentary, motionless, but even when we know the benefit of getting up, going outside, and moving our bodies, getting out of the box can be difficult and potentially fraught if you are stiff, tight, imbalanced, and out of shape.

This is where Personal trainers, or more specifically, movement coaches come in.

On today's Paleo Radio Bite we talk to movement coach Jenn Pilotti, owner of a private training studio in Carmel, California.

In our conversation we discuss:

Her favorite functional movements.

Overcoming movement fears.

The difference between kick-ups, frogger's, and other handstand progressions.

Imagine that you haven't been feeling well. Imagine that you go to the doctor, and after they review your symptoms they tell you that there is some very bad news. Imagine that you are told that you have an incurable illness.

What do you do?

Frankly, we don't think there is any "right" response to this kind of news. It's presumptuous and disrespectful to assume that we know what is good and right for someone else. Nevertheless, it’s hard not to be inspired by stories that suggest we have a choice.

A choice to give in or fight on

A choice to face darkness in the search of light

A choice to live, or die.

After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks nerve cells causing pain and other debilitating symptoms, Natalie Shultz was ready to make her choice, and in our conversation we discuss:

How she discovered that she had MS.

What MS is, what causes it, and how it can be controlled.

The limitations of conventional treatment options.

How the Wahl's protocol changed her life.

Why cheating on her diet isn't an option and how she channeled her desire to help others into the creation of the world's healthiest cups and water bottles.

Life might give us lemons, but we don't always get to making lemonade right away. This is because, unlike lemonade, adding sugar to bitter events only provides a temporary salve with long term consequences.

This was the case for Michael Tamez, who after a devastating series of personal tragedies found that his coping mechanism of eating junk food caused him to rapidly become overweight and gave him severe sleep apnea, high blood pressure, and gum disease too.

On today's Paleo Radio Bite, we talk to Michael about how he turned all of this around and transformed the dysfunctional relationship he had to food, and transformed his lifestyle, health, and body in the process.

One thing we've noticed working in the health and wellness industry is that people often assume that we've always had it all together.

They assume we've always eaten Paleo, they assume we've always worked out, and they assume that we never struggled with staying fit. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth. We do this work because of the challenges we faced, not because we lacked them.

That's why it was so exciting to finally talk to Melissa Joulwan. Fashionable, fit, and successful, Mel looks like she's always "had it all together" too, but as you'll soon find out, her early struggles, numerous as they were, were the very things that forged her into the person she is today.

They assume we've always eaten Paleo, they assume we've always worked out, and they assume that we never struggled with staying fit. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth. We do this work because of the challenges we faced, not because we lacked them.

That's why it was so exciting to finally talk to Melissa Joulwan. Fashionable, fit, and successful, Mel looks like she's always "had it all together" too, but as you'll soon find out, her early struggles, numerous as they were, were the very things that forged her into the person she is today.

Do you ever feel like you're doing all the right things but you're still not getting results?

We've seen many people working out hard, eating clean, and still having trouble shaking excess body fat. Other times they are tired and lack energy, but in either case, everything looks good, that is until you look under the hood.

As a functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner Mike Ritter does just that, and in our conversation today, we discuss the things he finds, and how he fixes them.

Matt is widely known in the Paleo community as one half of the dynamic Paleo Parent's duo, but after writing multiple best-selling books, creating an uber popular blog, and producing blockbuster podcasts, he and his wife Stacy decided they wanted to get Real.

Their new website, RealEverything.com, is dedicated to real talk, real food, and real life, and for Matt, this meant exploring his boundless search for knowledge. Matt's new podcast, Thirsty Brain with Matt McCary, explores everything from the history of zombies and Julius Caesar to medieval surgical masks and the sleeping habits of ducks.

On today's episode of PMR, Matt joins us for a Paleo-centric preview of Thirsty Brain where we dive deep into the controversial question, "How long did cavemen actually live?"

In our conversation we discuss:

The important differences between lifespan and life expectancy

What all-cause mortality means

Why wheat made us shorter

How our modern lives have been extended despite our crappy diets

and the reasons why our hunter gatherer ancestors really did die young, but spoiler alert, it had nothing to do with diet.

Growing up, Ben Phelps turned to food to deal with stress, depression, and anxiety. He wanted to get healthy for his family and their future, but he lacked confidence because all of his previous efforts to lose weight resulted in failure.

When Ben discovered the book The Primal Blueprint however, his hope returned as he saw the simple, practical, and primal approach as something he could literally and figuratively sink his teeth into.

Eating delicious primal foods and working out with a movement-centered approach, Ben lost over 120 pounds and is now following his dream of competing in mixed martial arts and is even studying to be a personal trainer.

We usually start this show talking about our guests, but before we do that, Tony has a story to share, about himself, that you might not know.

It's a story that starts almost twenty years ago, back to the summer of 1998, the summer before Tony started his freshman year of high school. It was only a few weeks before the start of the school year, and, as is often the case, he had to get a physical before he could complete the enrollment process.

"During the exam, the doctor noticed a lump on my throat and after further investigation, it was determined that I had a potentially cancerous cyst on my thyroid gland. I was only 14 at the time, so I really had no idea what was going on but nevertheless it was decided between my doctor and parents that a partial thyroidectomy to remove the half of my thyroid gland that had the cyst on it, was the ideal course of treatment. I don't remember being scared as much as I felt like I was on a ride that I had no control over. The train had left the station and I was a passenger who had no choice but to go on to the next stop.

I remember going into the hospital and being prepped for surgery, getting the anesthesia, and then everything going black. The next thing I knew I was awake, but I couldn't lift my head and everything above my shoulders was in pain. What felt like seconds to me was actually more than five hours, during which the doctors had my throat completely opened up while they debated what to do.

When they initially opened me up, they sampled a piece of the cyst, but it didn't check out with any known cancers. This uncertainty led to fear and this fear led to them deciding that instead of removing half my thyroid gland, they would remove the whole thing. As lab tests would later prove, I did not in fact have cancer, but once your thyroid gland is gone, it doesn't come back and from that moment on my life was dependent on thyroid replacement medication.

The medication I was given is one of the most commonly prescribed medications in America, it goes by the generic name levothyroxine, or the brand name Synthroid. Every six months I would get blood tests, visit my endocrinologist, and get my prescription renewed. They always tested for TSH, thyroid stimulating hormone, a signaling hormone produced by the pituitary gland that supposedly indicates whether you have too little, too much, or just the right amount of thyroid hormone in your body.

As it was, my TSH levels were on a perpetual roller coaster, and my Synthroid dosage was constantly being changed. I had bags under my eyes, would fall asleep in the middle of the day, and never felt really energetic, but my TSH levels were good and so I soldiered on.

I started working out, began to eat healthy, got into the fitness business, and began my career, always assuming that everyone felt the way that I did. But, when I cured my chronic knee pain with barefoot running and resolved years of binge eating with a paleo diet I started to question the conventional wisdom. I started to wonder what was really going on with my thyroid and began to investigate whether or not synthroid was the best way to treat it.

As I looked deeper into the issue, I discovered that there were entire websites, books, and communities of people online who had many of the issues I did. I learned that natural thyroid replacement made from desiccated pig thyroids used to be the gold standard, but when synthetic thyroid, ie synthroid, was discovered and marketed, the pharmaceutical company that made synthroid went on a mission to discredit natural thyroid replacement, convincing doctors that it was unreliable, inconsistent, and unsafe.

With this knowledge, I demanded that my doctor switch me to a modern natural thyroid replacement called Armour thyroid. He wasn't an endocrinologist and didn't really seem to care too much about what I did, so he wrote me the prescription without resistance and I got my natural thryoid hormone.

On Armour thyroid I began to come back to life again. The bags under my eyes began to go away, the mid afternoon crashes disappeared, and I realized that I didn't have to do cardio for hours a day to maintain my weight.

The realization slowly began to creep into my brain that for all those years I had been a victim and didn't even know it. I wasn't a victim of any single person, doctor, or drug, I was the victim of an entire system that puts profits before people. That's why I was so excited to meet Elle Russ."

Elle found out who Tony was through his work with Paleo Magazine and she reached out to tell us about a book she was working on that dove into the subject of thryoid health, but from a Paleo perspective. She is a thyroid health advocate who had herself suffered from years of medical mismanagement and she too had to learn the hard way.

We had a great conversation about the proper ways to dose natural thryoid hormone the nuances of t3 and t4, and how TSH alone is not a good indicator of thryoid function. We didn't record this conversation, but when Elle's book, the Paleo Thyroid Solution, was finished, we invited her to come on to Paleo Magazine Radio to share her story with you. Little did we realize that she was about to change Tony’s life in a very significant way, but we’ll let you listen to find out how.

We first saw Jamie Lynn Brazie on Instagram. At the time, Tony was editing Paleo Fitness Magazine (all 6 issues are now available in an ebook compendium btw) and we were promoting the #paleofitnessarmy hashtag. We occasionally searched the hashtag to see what people were posting and on this particular day one of Jamie's photos came up.

She was sitting on the beach in the lotus position, and as a lifelong Floridian, Tony immediately recognized the scenery. They both hailed from a similar part of the state, so when it came time to scout for a cover model for our fourth issue, Tony thought it would be cool to feature a local girl.

Jamie and her husband are now living out in the Pacific Northwest, but she is still bringing that Florida sunshine and sharing the message of health out west.

After the Ancestral Health Symposium ended, one of the show organizers, J. Brett Smith approached us and said he had organized an impromptu meeting outside the conference hall and he wanted us to bring the audio recorder because what was about to be said was going to rock the Paleo world.

Brett assured us that the assembled group represented a rare gathering of thinkers on the subject of plants. Despite the conventional wisdom that we need to eat a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, this group's controversial position is that fruit's and vegetables are overrated, unnecessary, and maybe even toxic!

According to the eclectic group of PhDs, authors, self-experimenters, and more, plants have been engaging in chemical warfare, which of course sounds like dirty tactics until you consider that they lack the ability to scurry away or fight back with tooth and claw like animals do. So, without these things they've had to develop an entire arsenal of insidious chemicals to ward off predators like us.

We've never really questioned the benefits of eating fruits and vegetables but the evidence presented by this panel was compelling and certainly dims the health halo surrounding plant based diets.

Today we're continuing our coverage of the 2016 Ancestral Health Symposium with a conversation with Chris Masterjohn of the Daily Lipid, Darryl Edwards, the Fitness Explorer, and Dr. Terry Wahls, creator of the Wahls protocol.

This interview was originally featured as a Facebook live video on the Ancestral Health Foundation's Facebook page, but we wanted to make sure that you, our dedicated PMR audience, got a chance to listen in as well. And since we weren't about to cut any of these interviewees off, today's show is a bit longer than a typical Paleo Radio Bite, so we'll get right to the chase.

It's not often you get three heavy hitters like this all in one show, and I think you're going to learn a lot from hearing what they have to say. Enjoy.

In our conversation we cover a broad range of questions, like:

What is Ancestral health?

What's the best dietary sources of vitamin K?

And whether or not there are any studies to back up our intuitions about organic produce and grass fed meat.

Last week on the podcast you heard Tony's 2016 Ancestral Health Symposium talk, "Get Up Stand Up: A brief history of sedentarism and why movement is good medicine," and if you didn't, we encourage you to go back and check it out.

If you did, we hope it motivated you to get up out of your chair, to move around, and to start getting healthier by giving your body more of the movement nutrients that it needs. But, as passionate as we are about exercise, we know that it is only one piece of the Paleo, Ancestral health puzzle.

That's why we were so pleased to be able to attend AHS this year and to see such diversity in the talks and poster presentations which covered everything from mind-controlling microbes to adrenal fatigue, and everything in between.

We left the conference feeling informed and inspired, but also a little sad because coming home meant leaving the amazing AHS tribe of attendees, presenters, vendors, and volunteers behind.

We really can't think of a better group of people to spend a weekend with and think it's the people that really make these events so special. And to celebrate those people, we made sure to record conversations with as many of them as we could.

On Today's episode of Paleo Magazine Radio:

We share an uber ride from Denver International Airport into Boulder with AHS co-founder Aaron Blaisdell.

We dive deep into conversations on the show floor.

We stop by the movement sessions

We even take some time to appreciate the beautiful scenery in Boulder, Colorado.

Tony just got back from the 2016 Ancestral Health Society symposium and has some great audio for you.

During the conference, which was held on the beautiful, Rocky Mountain surrounded, University of Colorado Boulder Campus, Tony recorded a Facebook Live conversation with Dr. Terry Wahls, Chris Masterjohn, and Darryl Edwards. He got a one on one interview with the Paleo Mom Dr. Sarah Ballantyne that reveals her latest fitness hack and also listened in as a group of Plant experts called into question one of the bedrock beliefs of Paleo. And, throughout the conference, captured numerous mini-interviews with a diversity of entrepreneurs, academics, and medical specialists that will give you a chance to really experience what it's like at AHS.

Getting all this audio together is going to require a little bit of editing, so we're going to kick things off with Tony's Ancestral Health Symposium presentation "Get Up, Stand Up: A Brief History of Sedentarism and Why Movement is Good Medicine."

In "Get Up, Stand Up", Tony shares his own personal experience with chronic low back pain, and how it opened his eyes to the dangers of sitting down. If you are interested in finding out the relationship between our movement environment and chronic disease, when chairs were invented, and how sitting might not be the new smoking, but it might be the new McDonald's, stand up, or even better, walk, and give it a listen.

Harrison Levy was a fan of the Paleo lifestyle, and ate, moved, and lived as closely as he could to Paleo principles. However, there was one area of his life that avoided the ancestral health approach.

He was an avid exerciser and would routinely take pre-workout supplements prior to lifting weights. The boost of energy was welcome, but the artificial colors, flavors, and ingredients were not. In a fit of inspiration, Harrison decided that he could do it better, and went to work creating his own, all-natural, paleo friendly pre-workout.

On today's Paleo Radio bite, we talk to Harrison about this initial moment of inspiration, what his original recipe looked like, and how he grew his company with Instagram.

Most of us spend our days in front of computers, on the phone, or in our cars, working, stressing, succeeding, and striving all while remaining seated and stationary.

This wouldn't be a problem if our ancestors were a sedentary species like pine trees, but unfortunately for us, our lineage comes from a dynamic group of animals who made their way through the world by employing a broad scope of movement patterns. Squatting, lunging, gripping, hanging, pressing, pulling, twisting, and sprinting, we are meant to be on the move and our biological machinery demands more than just a daily dose of gym time. To truly thrive, we need to reintroduce movement into our daily lives.

Today's show is part one of a two part series dedicated to the idea that movement is more than just exercise and features a conversation with world renowned movement expert Dr. Kelly Starrett.

Stephanie Dodier spent fifteen years climbing the corporate ladder and while she projected an image of success on the outside, on the inside, trouble was brewing.

One day, while Stephanie was giving a presentation, an alarming sensation came over her, her heart raced, she felt lightheaded, and she thought she was having a heart attack. Her co-workers rushed her to the hospital and after being thoroughly examined, the prognosis was that she had experienced a panic attack brought on by stress. Instead of talking to her about her diet and lifestyle however, the doctor simply wrote a prescription for anti-anxiety and antidepressant medications and sent her on her way.

Intuitively, Stephanie knew that this was the wrong approach and in that moment decided to take a different path. The journey that she began on that fateful day has not only resulted in health, it has also reinvigorated Stephanie's spirit, her sense of connection, and ignited her purpose.

On today's show, she tells her story and shares the lessons she learned along the way.

When we found out that we'd be talking to Brad Kearns, former pro triathlete, host of the Primal Endurance Podcast, and co-author of Mark Sisson's new book Primal Endurance, we thought it would be a straightforward conversation about athletic performance, the mechanics of the cardiorespiratory system, and why chronic cardio is a bad idea.

The conversation we actually had was much different, and much more interesting in my opinion, covering a much broader scope of subjects and diving deep into the areas of mindset, intuition, and awareness.

Brad has been working alongside Mark Sisson for many years, but he has his own unique and valuable voice within the Paleo/Primal space. His experience as a professional athlete, a parent, and educator have given him valuable insights into his own mind, and by extension, the human condition as a whole. We really enjoyed this interview and think you will too.

Every once in awhile you come across someone who just has "it", that difficult to quantify quality of energy, enthusiasm, confidence, and presence that makes other people pay attention and take notice.

While at Paleo f(x) this past year we met someone who has "it", teenage Paleo blogger Sadie Radinsky.

She wowed Paleo f(x) founder Michelle Norris, chatted up Robb Wolf, and definitely made a mark on us as well. You might remember her from our 2016 Paleo f(x) wrap up episode, but we wanted to bring her back to tell a little more about her story, her Paleo mission, and to share with you some of the magic that she brings to this world.

One of Tony's first assignments for Paleo Magazine was to cover the original Paleo f(x) conference and the first person he met in Austin was a fellow Paleo fan named Charissa Talbot.

At the time, Charissa had just taken a job working as a virtual assistant for Diane Sanfilippo, whose Balance Bites blog and 21 Day Sugar Detox program had just started to become a little too much for her to handle on her own.

They became fast friends and spent much of that weekend fanboying and fangirling over the talks, presentations, workshops, and experiences that defined the original Paleo f(x) event.

Fast forward several years later and Tony's still working for Paleo Magazine and Charissa too is still heavily involved in the Paleo community.

Her current role as COO for ThePaleoMom.com involves overseeing an entire team of coaches, writers, editors, and social media specialists. She's Dr. Sarah Ballantyne's right hand woman, working behind the scenes to ensure that all the book projects, blog posts, programs, and podcasts featured on ThePaleoMom.com arrive on time, in shape, and ready to rock.

We are thrilled to have the opportunity to interview our friend Charissa and to share her story with all of you.

As you all must know, the past few weeks have been tragic, so much so that the word tragic seems insufficient.

When we check the Facebook news feed we're confronted with such unbelievable violence. Violence against gay nightclub goers, violence against African Americans, violence against police, and we feel compelled to address this rift in our collective consciousness as ignoring it and pretending it doesn't exist or didn't happen seems disrespectful to the deceased, their families, and to society at large.

We realize that this is a podcast largely focused on health, exercise, entrepreneurship, and food, but none of these things exist in a vacuum.

We also realize that it can be tempting to hide ourselves from the world by focusing on the minutia of our lives, whether we drank enough bone broth, ate enough kale, or made ourselves sweat. These things are important, personal health is important, but we are all part of a tribe and right now our tribe is not well.

We don't pretend to have any solutions but do know that as humans we are capable of doing good just as much as we are capable of committing acts of evil and we're certain that there is more good in this world than not.

We think our own words are exhausted at this point, so we're going to play something that feels particularly relevant to the moment we are in today.

What you're about to hear is a speech Robert F. Kennedy gave on April 4, 1968 in Indianapolis Indiana. At the time, he was running for the Democratic presidential nomination and while one his way to what was supposed to be a typical campaign rally, he was given the news that Martin Luther King had been shot and killed.

This was before 24 hour cable news and before the internet, so many of the people assembled did not know what had happened to Dr. King. Kennedy's aides, local officials, and law enforcement were concerned about security and the potential for a riot, but he decided to speak anyway and gave the speech from a podium mounted on the back of a flatbed truck.

When news of Dr. King's death broke, there were riots in over 100 US cities including New York, Chicago, Boston, Detroit, and Baltimore, but Indianapolis was not one of them and it is thought that the speech given by Robert Kennedy was one reason why the city, unlike so many others, remained calm in the aftermath of Dr. King's assassination.

63 days after giving this speech Robert Kennedy was also shot and killed, but his words and the impact that they had on the people who heard them lived on.

Our hope in sharing this speech with you today is that Robert Kennedy's words will live in you as well and that in the face of so much tragedy, evil, and despair, you will choose love, hope, and understanding.

So you’ve read the “The Paleo Diet," "The Primal Blueprint," and “The Paleo Solution” and are ready to dive headfirst into the Paleo lifestyle. You hop in your car, head to the local supermarket, and start looking for Paleo-friendly foods.

If you’re like most people, somewhere between the sugar-infused tomato sauces, CAFO meat, and wheat gluten everything, you throw your hands up in frustration, realizing that while the Paleo concept is simple, shopping Paleo isn’t. Luckily however, you’re not alone, and if there is a positive side to frustration, it’s that it’s a great stimulus for invention.

Jen Reissman, co-founder of OneStopPaleoShop.com, remembers her Paleo-shopping frustration well. She and her co-founder Devon would visit upwards of seven different stores to get everything they needed, and it was after one particularly trying day of shopping that Jen and Devon had an idea. They decided that they would create a website that brought together all sorts of Paleo-friendly products under one roof, a one stop paleo shop if you will, which they also realized was a great name for their business, and so the website onestoppaleoshop.com was born.

On Deep Dish hosts Tony Federico and Russ Crandall explore big questions like who invented beef? Where do apples come from? And why are carrots orange? We also uncover the history of iconic recipes that use these foods like meatloaf, apple pie, and peas and carrots and then create our own ultimate versions, with AIP, Whole 30, and Paleo friendly options. You can stream the audio portion of deep dish for free on our site deepdish.us and if you like what you hear you can purchase our ebook for only five bucks.

The 2016 Summer Olympics will be held next month in Rio de Janeiro Brazil, and along with the gymnastics, track and field, soccer, boxing, and other sports, there's weightlifting.

But unlike the weightlifting most of us are familiar with, Olympic weightlifting doesn't involve targeting specific muscle groups. There is no biceps curl, bench press, or dip, no leg press, hamstring curl, or seated row.

In Olympic weightlifting there are two moves; the clean and jerk and the snatch, that's it, but despite their superficial simplicity, the clean and jerk and snatch require thousands of hours of practice and the patience of a zen monk to master.

On today's show, Stephanie Gaudreau, Paleo Magazine Radio regular and host of Harder to Kill, breaks down the details of Olympic lifting. Why it is her chosen sport, and why the pursuit of Olympic Lifting mastery is worth it's weight in gold medals even if you're not planning on going to the Olympics.

This week, we had originally planned on featuring an interview with Jen Reissman of One Stop Paleo shop, but we couldn't wait to share what we recorded a couple days ago. It's a conversation with Dr. Andy Galpin, a professor at the Center for Sport Performance at California State University and Director of their Biochemistry and Molecular Exercise Physiology Laboratory.

We met at Paleof(x) while moderating a panel called "Swole by Science". He was a featured panelists that struck us by his ability to take complex physiological processes, like how muscle contractions occur thanks to millions of tiny protein filaments called actin and myosin, and to break them down into an understandable and relatable form.

The plan going into this interview was to get Dr. Andy to reiterate the points he made during the panel discussion, but what we didn't expect is to get into some seriously awesome side conversations.

On last week's episode of Paleo Magazine Radio, we had a great conversation with professional obstacle course racer Hunter McIntyre. We dove deep into Hunter's past and how he overcame difficulties with school and societal expectations to become who he is today.

It was a great conversation full of incredible stories as well as practical takeaways for crushing obstacle course races as well as the hurdles life itself throws your way.

At the end of the episode, we mentioned that we would be previewing an episode of Hunter's podcast, the Obstacle Dominator show that he co-hosts with Paleo Magazine Radio alum Ben Greenfield, so that's what you'll be hearing today.

The episode you'll be listening to features Hunter and Professional Racing Coach Dennis Welch.

They discuss the evolution of Obstacle Racing and how it is now attracting serious athletes and professionals from other sporting domains like Randy Moss and Lance Armstrong, Coach Dennis' favorite training implements and how he cultivates future Hunter McIntyre's by working with youth athletes.

At some point in human history, physical movement became a luxury and gyms opened up to serve exercise to the masses. As our lifestyles got worse, so did our health, and as statistics for obesity rose, some of us continued to dive into the growing exercise industry.

Host Tony Federico has been in the fitness industry for ten years and when not podcasting, is the director of a fitness center in Jacksonville Florida serving approximately 500 members and offering a variety of services such as group exercise classes, personal training, massage, free weights, and cardio training equipment. In the past, he coached crossfit and thinks a large part of the crossfit movement is a protest of the traditional fitness model, no pun intended. But going beyond crossfit, there seems to be a growing number of people interested in even more extreme departures from the fitness norm.

Obstacle racing, mud running and super spartan events range in size and scope but all advertise how completely dirty you will be when you finish. Far from our sanitary "regular" lives, mud running is a wild romp through physical, mental, and spiritual hurdles. It totally sucks, but that's the point. Obstacle races take us out of our comfort zone and we pay good money for it. For some participants, this is an occasional catharsis, but for others, it's something more.

Today's guest, Hunter McIntyre, is widely considered to be one of the best obstacle course racers in the world. Sponsored by the Spartan Race organization and Reebok, he travels around the world, putting on a display of incredible attitude, confidence, and primal energy wherever races.

Today's guest, Hunter McIntyre, is widely considered to be one of the best obstacle course racers in the world. Sponsored by the Spartan Race organization and Reebok, he travels around the world, putting on a display of incredible attitude, confidence, and primal energy wherever races. Click Here for the full transcript

On today's show we discuss:

Growing up as a wild child, dropping out of college, and training as a lumberjack.

Learning about nutrition from Tim Ferris' book the 4-hr body.

How he ran his first spartan race, slightly buzzed, in his underwear, and still finished in the top 10 in a field of 8,000.

What it took to become a professional obstacle course racer.

How he trains to be the best in the world.

Why he's now spending his time cross-country skiing across Greenland and running across the Moab desert.

One of the very specific benefits of being Paleo podcasters is that we occasionally receive packages of meat in the mail. For some, this might seem odd, but for us it's about as exciting as christmas day. We tear into the cardboard and foam packaging anticipating what sort of meaty delights are hidden inside and given that Paleo is all about quality grass-fed, sustainably sourced, humanely raised, heritage breed meats we're rarely disappointed but sometimes, there's that rare occasion where we encounter a game changer.

This is what happened after we got a package from The Piggery, a pastured pork collective based out of Ithaca, New York. Their rosemary thyme rubbed pork chops were a revelation, pork unlike any we've ever experienced, more like beef or steak than pork, and after that first bite we had to know how they did it, and after this episode of Paleo Radio bites, you will too.

On today's bite we chat with Piggery owner Brad Marshall who shares some of his secrets to making magical pork products.

When we think of physicians we typically think of doctors in white coats and when we think of medicine, we typically think of prescription pharmaceuticals.

But this particular form of healthcare, one which predominates in contemporary Western culture, is actually a relatively new phenomenon which only took shape in the past 100 or so years. So before the white coats and before the drugs what did people do when they got sick?

Using the plants, animals, and minerals around them, ancient peoples were remarkably adept at maintaining health and often incorporated physical, mental, and spiritual practices into a holistic way of life. One example of a traditional healthcare system, and one which predates our western medical model by thousands of years, is ayurveda.

Developed by vedic culture of ancient India, Ayurveda, translates literally as "the wisdom of life". In Ayurveda, health is a vital, energetic, and balanced state of being, rather than just the absence of disease, and ayurvedic practitioners use a variety of diagnostic methods to customize health prescriptions for each patient's individual needs.

Ayurvedic teachings were originally passed from one practitioner to another by apprenticeships and oral traditions, but they were eventually codified around 300 BC in a sacred text known as the Rig Veda.Since then, knowledge of Ayurveda has spawned thousands of books, health retreats, blogs, and beyond. Thanks in large part to it's effectiveness, this ancient health practice has found a home in the modern age.

On today's show, we're joined by Ayurveda expert, Dr. Akil Palanisamy, who is also a Harvard trained physician. His new book, "The Paleovedic Diet", combines the best of Western medicine, ayurveda, and paleo into a complete program that will help readers to burn fat, increase energy, and reverse disease.

In April 2015 we interviewed Nick Mares, an 18 year old entrepreneur who, along with his brother Justin, had just launched a food startup called Bone Broth's Co. When we last talked to Nick, the company had just secured a contract with a co-packer who could produce bone broth to their exacting standards. It had been a long process, with many ups and downs, and if you want to listen to this episode first, check out Paleo Magazine Radio Episode 81, titled Startup Paleo.

Today we're checking in with Nick to see how far the company has come in the past year. We think you're going to find that it's grown exponentially.

Every four years, the elite athletes from all across the globe gather to compete in the Olympic games. Those 17 days are filled with triumph, tragedy, heartbreak, and exaltation. Some rise, some fall, and all of us are entranced.

Most of us watch the spectacle with a sense of awe, a feeling that we are witnessing feats that are incredible, impossible for mere mortals, but for some, watching the Olympics ignites a deep hunger, a drive, and a purpose.

For every Olympian that competes in the games, there are hundreds, thousands, perhaps even millions more who dedicate themselves each and every day to the goal of competing, of winning, of proving themselves to the world and becoming an Olympic athlete.

Today's guest, Joseph Seaman is one of those hopefuls. Born in the UK, Joe now lives in Austin Texas where he trains and competes in the sport of rowing.

From afar, rowing is a graceful endeavor, with streamlined boats gliding across the water, but if you zoom in closer, you'll see that it is a brutal sport that pushes the body and mind to it's limits.

Regular listeners of this show know who Diana Rogers is, but if you don't, she's the author of two books, The Homegrown Paleo Cookbook and Paleo Lunches and Breakfasts On The Go, a podcast host, a farmer, and a regular contributor to Paleo Magazine. Diana has also been working diligently for the past few years to complete her education as a Registered Dietitian.

Getting your RD is no joke, it is a lot of work and requires serious commitment especially when you have multiple businesses and a family to take care of as well.

Diana persevered through a slew of challenging situations while going through this process, but ultimately prevailed and is now officially a Paleo RD.

On today's show, Diana tells the story of how she made it happen, which Paleo experts encouraged her along the way, and how she plans to change the nutritional world from the inside out.

This past weekend was the fifth annual Paleo f(x) conference, and as usual, it was bigger and better than ever before. With dozens of lectures, mastermind panels, cooking demos, and hundreds of vendors it's a veritable Paleo wonderland, but the best part is the people. If you walk in any direction, it's only a matter of seconds before you run into someone exceptional, and that’s not being hyperbolic. That's literally how today's show was recorded.

With a portable mic at the paleo magazine booth, we picked a direction, started walking, and grabbed the first person we came across. The result is a slew of on the spot interviews and conversations that feature everyone from a 14 year old Paleo blogger to a UFC superstar. Since everything was recorded on site, and right in the middle of the action, there is a good amount of ambient noise, but this is what it's like at Paleo f(x). There's always something going on and it's hard to decide what to pay attention to. Inevitably you'll get pulled into someone's orbit and have a conversation you'll never forget.

This is the closest you'll get to Paleo f(x) without actually attending, which we obviously recommend, and if you missed this year's show, or if you were there and just can't wait to go back, this will hopefully hold you over until 2017.

Last week on the podcast we mentioned a project host Tony Federico and PMR regular Russ Crandall have been working on called Deep Dish. It's a four episode podcast series as well as an ebook that's laser focused on a single meal, the all-american combination of meat loaf, mashed potatoes and gravy, peas and carrots, and apple pie. The show dives deep into the history, science, and cultural significance of each element of the dish, starting with meatloaf, and it's main ingredient, beef. The ultimate version of this dish is then created, using the highest quality ingredients, and a preparation that honors the history of the dish while elevating it with modern culinary techniques. All the recipes start off gluten free, but optional dairy-free, Paleo, Primal, Whole30, Vegetarian, and Vegan substitutions are provided as well.

For today's Paleo Radio bite, we're going to play for you Deep Dish Episode 1: Meat Loaf, and hope you enjoy the deep dive into this seemingly ordinary food. We think you'll find that there's much more to meatloaf than meets the eye.

The Paleo community is, by and large, a secular universe. We frame our perspectives on health and healing in terms of evolutionary mismatches, and lean heavily on science to explain the unfolding of our lives, But most of the worlds population has another world view, one that places god at the center of the universe.

It's often assumed that these two worlds, the secular and the spiritual, are mutually exclusive, but is that necessarily true? Can someone believe in the almighty and in science?

Today's guest, Jordan Rubin, is the author of the international best-selling Maker's Diet books, and is sometimes referred to as America's Biblical Health coach. Jordan's studies of naturopathic medicine, nutrition, and scripture led him to conclusions about diet and health that will sound very familiar to even part-time Paleos.

This first season of Deep Dish focuses on the quintessential American meal: meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy, peas and carrots, and apple pie. Join us as we discuss the history and cultural significance of each dish, and how this seemingly simple meal truly captures the American spirit.

The recipes contained in Season One are all gluten-free, with optional dairy-free, Paleo, Primal, Whole30, Vegetarian, and Vegan substitutions provided.

Gluten is the main protein found it wheat and it's what gives bread its chewiness and pastries their texture, but despite gluten's gustatory appeal, this particular plant protein has been increasingly implicated in a wide range of health conditions ranging from gut related gluten allergies and celiac's disease to neurological conditions like ALS, epilepsy, and autism.

Recently however, Examine.com, the internet's only independent encyclopedia on supplementation and nutrition, broke down a new study which found another reason why you might want to reconsider eating gluten, and to explore why, we're joined by the director of Examine.com Kamal Patel in another installment of Smart Supplementation.

We've seen more than our fair share of gimmicky abdominal exercise machines and over-the-top core training routines. These products and programs consistently promise miraculous results. Six packs in six weeks, inches off your waist with no effort, or improved posture and athletic performance. Do they really work well? Slick marketing can mislead us with doctored before and after photos.
